Wow well this is awk. You don't even like most of the people here yet continue to come here and chat? Now I know who won't be getting a beer tradesies from me at the Woodlands this year.
Okay and so how many DC people are hitting up matoma tonight? Ughhhh I just don't live near U Street at all and ubers are gonna be so expensive tonight and my date has officially changed the plan to dinner and hangout instead. Im a little sad.
U Street released the set times.
Solidisco @ 11pm
Matoma @ 12:30am
I think those are pretty standard. Looks like you have enough time for dinner, hangout, and Matoma...unless hangout turns into sleepover.
Ohhhh man those set times are too late for me on a week day anyway. I have work, not school, tomorrow so I really can't be out til 2 am willy nilly. I thought doors were earlier and set started at 10. Solidifies my decision then haha. I do have fomo though - have a blast and tell me about it tomorrow!
Considering you've found the need to respond to my threads as if you are threatened by me I offer you some peace my confused counterpart. May you find peace in your restless soul.

Completely understandable, I will not be on time to work tomorrow and even contemplating "food poisoning."
you mean the Coachella thats one of the biggest/best festivals in the country?
if firefly can get paul they can get anyone
LOL. Not exactly, Macca is definitely the biggest get to date for Firefly, however he isn't exactly a rare headliner since he has headlined a lot of the major US festivals already.
Seems like a lot of folks in the DC area. I am as well, more or less. (Towson). Any other shows in the area yall are going to around here?
You should check out BoomBox at Rams Head Live March 26th.
After tonight and before Firefly the only thing I have scheduled is Tiesto at Echostage (he started it all for me), which is 3/14. Most of the shows I attend are generally EDM, even though I greatly appreciate all types of music. I'm sure I will plan some other things though before FF.
U Street/9:30 Club have a pretty sweet calendar over the next 2-3 months. Unfortunately a lot of acts are already sold out. I am eying Duke Dumont April 25th though.
this is so dumb and way too early but ideal headliners for 2016? if i were to speak realistically i would say gorillaz because they're getting back together, muse because of the new album, and pearl jam because I'm hopeful.
Edit: Not sure if the mods are going to keep this thread or delete it in favor of a new one. This one was essentially created to mock the shenanigans associated with the 2015 lineup release debacle.
Since it's locked I'm just gonna post my prediction on here. Firefly tends to put up safe bands. Not bands that have an album coming out soon, but bands that already have great albums. If Mumford and Son's new album does well and Mumford is willing, I feel like they're really likely. They may not be your favorite band, but they're on of those bands that everyone appreciates to some extent. Casual listeners like them A LOT too. I also feel like Firefly is going to from now on follow the, let's get an older rock performer from the 70's, 80's, or 90's like Bonnaroo does. As far as who I'm not entirely sure. Probably whoever they can get that's most significant. And finally then a lot of people requested for Coldplay, Pearl Jam, and Eminem. I'd love for it to be Coldplay since it will be their last album this year and they're awesome live, but I also feel like their would be a lot of backlash from the casual crowd. If they spend a lot on the first two bands, the third could maybe be Imagine Dragons.

Has he though? I feel like he hasn't.
To my knowledge, he has only headlined Coachella, Bonnaroo, and Outside Lands.

If they wanted another big legend act, I think Bruce would make the most sense considering that he's from Jersey. Otherwise, I think Pearl Jam and Mumford would also be good fits for the festival demographic. If they bring Imagine Dragons back to headline next year, you can count me out. There are so many better alternatives who have never played the festival.

Totally forgot about Bruce. Yeah, in that case. Bruce Springsteen - Mumford and Sons - Pearl Jam

Yes please!! Two bucketlist artist in the same weekend! I'm down for that
This was my logic. You think any chance Firefly adds more sets for late night this year?
With the addition of the Pavilion Stage, I think we'll see a few more late night sets this year, but I'm skeptical that they will extend the festival hours beyond 2 am.

mumford would be great, so would bruce. If drake ever headlined firefly i would lose so much respect for red frog, not that i have much left. Also does anyone think muse is realistic?

I really doubt it. They're a pretty exclusive act, only headlining the Coachellas of the world and what not., I don't think FF is big enough yet.

Muse isn't that rare of a get. They headlined ACL in 2013 (billed 3rd), Lolla in 2011 (billed 4th), and Outside Lands in 2011 (billed 1st). That being said, I'm don't think Muse would really be on Firefly's radar.

Im sorry, but I really don't see the hype with Mumford... that new cd sounds like the same song 14 times in a row. I liked them when they first came out but it got old really fast.

The new CD that isn't out yet is supposed to be a departure from that. Babel really wasn't that great but this new one could be interesting. The clip though just sounded like more of the same with electric guitars.

I meant Babel, sorry haven't kept up with them. That being said, I rather see Mumford then KOL
